Event Format

The Rules of Play

01.

4 Man Ambrose

The classic four-person scramble. Each player hits, the team selects the best shot, and all players continue from that position.

02.

18 Holes · Shotgun Start

Simultaneous commencement across the course. A unified finish for the presentation lunch.

03.

Nearest the Pin

Placement over power. A single dedicated par-3 crowns the day's most precise iron.

04.

Longest Drive

Raw distance on a nominated fairway — individual glory for the day's furthest strike.

05.

Beat the Barber

The signature challenge. Go head-to-head against Nightingale's finest on the par-3 9th.

06.

Presentation Lunch

Presentation, raffles and prize giving. The competition closes with a relaxed social celebration.

Prizes

The Spoils of Victory

A full prize haul is being curated for the inaugural year. Official announcements coming soon.
